In the reduction of a bond granted by the Master of Forbes, as cautioner for his father, to Sir William Dicke; the Master, being in libello, craved prelation to prove minority; and the defender craved to be preferred, in fortification of his bond, and that majority was more affirmative. The Lords would hear a farther reasoning; but the Master did not care much, providing the witnesses were honest men, so that his father, for whom he was alleged cautioner, and who, might tine and win in the cause, was not admitted witness.
